FACTS IN THE GREAT CHURCH CASE UPON WHICH
OPPOSING COUNSEL ARE AGREED.
For the purposeso OF a motion for the appointment
OF a receiver, the opposing counsel in the Mormon
Church case in Salt Lake City Thursday afternoon
agreed on the following facts:
That the Tucker-Edmupds act, under which the
sui is instituted was received by the President on
February 19, 1887, and was not approved by him
or returned TO the House In which It originated
with objections; that when said act took effect
the Mormon Church held and owned. through
trustees, three parcels OF real estate valued at
and the Carlo House and historians ONCE, OOO
that at a general conference held at Provo, Utah.
on April 8, 1887, resolutions were adopted naming
William Preston, Robert Burton, and John winder
trustees for the said property under section 20 of
the Tucker-EdmundS law; that the first presi-
dency OF the church petitioned the Probate Court
TO make such appointment, and on May 10
Preston, Burton. and Winder were DULY cOnsti-
tuted trustees, and deeds for the three tracts
OF land named were executed to them, which the
Government claims were void That on February
act became law. President John Taylor held in
trust certain property OF an aggregate value of
$3.50 OO0 which, II Is claimed by the defendant and
denied by the plaintiff, had heretofore been con-
situted trust by individual members OF the
church for the Temple building and other chartta-
be and religious purposes That on that date

was passed. That the T1thing House never was

from tne CnicaxO news.
A lady whose name could not be ascertained
rushed into the presence Of Clerk Cofeen the other
morning, drag ling little man after her, and asked
for copy Of decree OF divorce which her solicit
ors claimed to have obtained for her few days be-
fore from Judge Jameson. She wanted to 60 down
TO the marriage license department, get a license,
make sure OF the decree, marry the little man
whom she had brought with her, and catch an
early train.
Mr. Coneen looked up the file, and, to the horror
OF the lady. discovered that Judge Jameson had
refused to grant her q decree from her first huS-
band. She wildly asked the clerk what she should
DO. He referred her TO her lawyers VINO straight
way proceeded to the court 10 straighten up things
Here IL was d covered that the judge mad refu ed
to grant the divorce because the stenographer had
made the complainant say she was married TO the
defendant In November, 1887, instead OF 1877.
This, however, was rectited, and The lady marched
on with decree and the little meek man under
her arm to the marriage license department., where
Clerk SalmOnSUn performed the necessary act TO-
ward making them one, and the couple hurried
away just In time to catch the train which was to
bear them out OF Chicago.
